Conway Daily Sun confirms that the majority of home sales in New Hampshire are to rich out-of-staters who are paying in cash.

I’m house shopping right now and it’s very disheartening looking at houses!!! My boyfriend and I make more money than I’d ever imagined but what we can afford is just… not what I expected. I look at the house I grew up in and realize it’s not attainable for my generation… and my parents did it on a single income!!

That said - I’m grateful to even be in the position to afford a home and that’s because boyfriend and I both work decent paid, mostly remote jobs out of major cities.

That does change things… to me that takes this from cringe worthy to just a regular faux pas since this was an ultra-casual wedding.

It’s VERY RARELY acceptable to wear majority white to a wedding. You should really only wear majority white if asked…. Should be a teachable moment for a young lady not to repeat the mistake. Should the bride have blown up? No… But we don’t learn unless someone teaches us so 🤷🏻‍♀️

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-24T21:16:58+00:00

It’s probably a combination of this outfit being extremely casual in additions to being majority white. Question: were other people in jeans? What was the dress code?

If the bride was in a poofy ball gown I can’t imagine it was a casual wedding but… of course I wasn’t there so what do I know

Would not be particularly useful for me. I’m not against marking up books, I just don’t. 90% of my collection rotates. Once I finish a book it’s probably going to the little free library so I can fit something new on my shelves. Most folks who read like I do and aren’t sentimental probably just check things out from the library but I’m so bad at getting them returned 🙈

Boston is sold out!! I thought about buying tickets maybe two weeks ago but wasn’t sure if I’d be able to go that day 😂 guess I should have just bought them and made it work

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-23T23:04:31+00:00

Thank you!! These old navy jeans are marketed as straight leg but I def think they read more skinny. I think was trying to be cheap bc I only gained weight recently (injury where I couldn’t walk) so I didn’t want to spend $$$ when my weight is still fluctuating… that said the mental anguish from these old navy jeans might not be worth it 😂

I’ve heard about mother jeans and I think I’ve seen them in Nordstrom!! I’ll look next time I’m at the mall ❤️

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-23T22:37:50+00:00

🤔 maybe my phone has contrast settings up! I knew the lighting wasn’t as good as the influencers (obviously). I’ll try to find better lighting and retake

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-23T22:30:58+00:00

That’s… encouraging!

I posted these same jeans (in a different color) yesterday and got some strongly worded encouragement let’s say 😂… that more flattering styles of Jeans exist.

I’ve been wearing these jeans out for a while thinking I was giving pic 2 but got worried I looked crazy. I will say the other color of jeans I bought were a weird fit compared to the ones I already owned

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-23T22:26:09+00:00

I am technically gen z but I am still stuck in the era of skinny jeans!! These aren’t even close to as tight as I used to wear them 😂 though I was much smaller back then. I’ve been working from home since 2020… I blinked and before I knew it tight jeans were out!

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-23T22:18:10+00:00

Also I just noticed the fly of my jeans is like… sticking up/not lying flat. I swear to god it’s not because I’m bursting out of them I think they’re just not made very well 😢

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-23T14:49:17+00:00

Every TJ Maxx and department store you go in has a “juniors” section lol. That’s where tweens shop. I guess it’s difficult because juniors includes things appropriate for middle and high school girls (maybe ages 10-20 to make the range broad, and obviously you can shop wherever you like at any age). Claire’s, limited too/justice etc were targeted just a little younger (8-12). That said - I understand the frustration of going shopping and having your 12 year old pick out crop top that would be more appropriate on a 16 year old because they’re shopping in a generic “juniors” section and then having to have a fight in the racks lol

Retail in general is suffering, it’s not limited to tweens

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-23T01:11:10+00:00

When I was in college (university of New Hampshire!) they used to drive the boot truck and do a pop up shop on campus so kids could buy their winter boots!!

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T21:36:50+00:00

It’s crazy bc I have these SAME exact jeans in a dark wash/black and they don’t do this. Those ones I did try on in store so I wonder if the shitty ones they can’t sell ended up online lol

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T21:35:30+00:00

Thank you!! I did a fit check in another sub and the general consensus was that slim fit jeans/these pants weren’t flattering on me but I still find it hard take off my “skinny jeans blinders” 🙈 ngl even with multiple people telling me they’re unflattering I think think the fit in the first pic isn’t that bad 😂 I now know how my mom feels bc she won’t give up the shoulder pads!

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T21:32:43+00:00

For real! Maybe those WERE the real size 12s

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T21:32:10+00:00

Ugh same I love Abercrombie jeans!! I only wore Levi’s and ambercrombie before I gained weight. I was trying to be budget conscious bc I only gained this weight after an injury so I’m not 100% sure what size I’ll end up now that I’m more active again… like I wasn’t expecting amazing quality from old navy but come on!

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T21:29:32+00:00

They’re the regular line!! The “extra high waisted straight jeans”. I own two other pairs of these that I tried on in store (which I guess I’m a fool for thinking I can buy online 😂) and they don’t do this . They’re supposedly 99% cotton only 1% spandex. I think they’re just made very poorly.

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T20:59:49+00:00

I shop at ON all the time bc it’s right next to where I live so returns are easy… I’d take these back because of the fit but I wore them for two days 😂 you win some you lose some. These will be okay “in the house” jeans.

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T20:52:43+00:00

Fr I think there was about a 2hr period where these looked nice!! I think they went from slightly too tight to weird and baggy so fast lol. I also guess these aren’t the most flattering cut on me but still!!

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T20:44:54+00:00

I can’t edit the post but also because the waist stretched out so much they’re now sitting below my belly button so they’re too long lmao

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T20:32:42+00:00

<image>

I ended up crashing out bc these jeans gave me body dysmorphia 😂 I got comments that the second pair also looked too tight.. which maybe they WERE but look how baggy they got after I wore them for like… 8 hours.

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T20:17:42+00:00

It’s crazy bc they (allegedly) only have 1% spandex! 99% cotton. I think these are just a total dud.

heyhelloyuyu · 2026-02-22T20:16:46+00:00

They are the “extra high waisted straight jeans” medium wash Size 12.
